Jeff Bezos gets straight to the heart of business: Your brand is your reputation. 
And just like a personal reputation, your brand isn't something you can buy; it's something you earn. You earn it by consistently showing up, solving tough problems, owning your mistakes, and dedicating yourself to doing the "hard things well".

"Are you shouting into the void? If your content isn't consistently attracting your ideal customer, it's time to refine your aim! Stop guessing what your audience wants and start knowing it.
We're talking about 'How to Eavesdrop' on Social Media – not in a creepy way, but in a smart, strategic way! 

"You posted. You waited. Silence. That feeling of low engagement isn't just about reach; it's about a missed connection. Your audience is out there, but your captions might not be inviting them to talk back.

"Are your social media posts getting crickets instead of comments?

Do you have trouble leaving a lasting impact online? This is caused by inconsistency across platforms. Your audience is being misled by the inconsistencies in your visual presentation.

Think about your favourite brands. You probably remember their story, not just their products. People don't remember logos; they remember narratives. People don't remember products – they remember stories.
